    A victim of early 21th century compression. Im hoping the XX vinyl version will make up for this.

      Hey guys,

      I have a LP version similar to this one but the matrix / runout doesn't match entirely, and can't seem to find the right one. Would you guys know if this is just another variant of the same?

      Matrix / Runout (Side A, Stamped): 81720E1/B PIRATES PRESS - MUSEDLP3 A
      Matrix / Runout (Side B, Stamped): 81720E2/C PIRATES PRESS - MUSEDLP3 B
      Matrix / Runout (Side C, Stamped): 81720E3/D PIRATES PRESS - MUSEDLP3 C
      Matrix / Runout (Side D, Stamped): 81720E4/K PIRATES PRESS - MUSEDLP3 D

      Note that the stamp '81720E' varies from my vinyl (as written above), to this version on Discogs.

      Thanks!

        It definitely sounds flat. It's not just that's it's missing stereo imaging (it does), it's just flat as well.

          I wouldn't say it sounds flat... More like the stereo imaging is a bit narrow. I think those are are different in definition?

            Reading the comments below, is it possible that a CD transfer was used?

            Quite incredible to consider for a major act / label, but it's not beyond the realm of possibility.

            When a CD sounds better than an LP (especially given this is a 2xLP with the tracks generously spread out), something's definitely wrong.

              Sounds good enough, but it could be better. I can't tell if they did a proper mastering for vinyl or just didn't bother. I'd bet the latter is true. Still, worth having if you're into Muse like me.

                Slightly better than CD, but still flat. Muse has always great albums and crappy mastering... :/

                  Still feels a bit flat, i don't know if its the mastering but i cant put my finger on it
